Rejection of a single bid for charter bus services, a presentation about academic progress of English language learners during the 2014-15 year, and a technology update are up for discussion by the Fairfield-Suisun Unified leaders.

District staff members tonight will tell the seven-member governing board that only one bid was received for charter bus services. The purchasing department determined there was not enough competitive response and, therefore, will reject the bid, with the intention of re-opening the bidding process.

The assistant superintendent of educational services, Rona Portalupi, will note that the district “made significant growth,” according to agenda documents, on the California English Language Development Test (CELDT) during the 2014-15 year. Some 56 percent of English learners met state criteria that year compared to 50 percent in the previous year.
